WiiM announces their new audio streamer

WiiM Ultra Streamer

WiiM, the global technology company offering premium smart home experiences through simple and affordable connected AI products, are launching their latest, and most impressively specced streamer to date.

WiiM Ultra delivers an impeccable audio experience with hi-res, lossless quality, while enabling multi-room functionality and connectivity to a plethora of cutting-edge technologies. Users can connect WiiM Ultra to their existing active speakers, home theatre setup or vintage record player and effortlessly stream their favourite music collection directly from a preferred music app or by using voice commands. 

“We've dedicated ourselves to designing products that elevate the music streaming experience, and the WiiM Ultra is the next step in our expanded line-up," said Dr. Lifeng Zhao, CEO of WiiM. "With valuable user feedback and our team's commitment to superior audio quality, the WiiM Ultra delivers audiophile-grade sound and a seamless experience for music enthusiasts to unlock a world of musical possibilities."

One of our favourite features of the WiiM Ultra is the bodywork itself, a vibrant 3.5” full-colour touchscreen, a physical volume knob, and a rich selection of audio inputs and outputs for even richer, hi-res sound, it truly is a central hub for your listening space. The device seamlessly integrates with popular streaming services and supports multiple audio formats, making it a versatile addition to any smart home setup.

Within its precision-designed aluminium chassis, WiiM Ultra makes use of a premium ESS Sabre ES9038Q2M DAC chip for expert conversion of your digital audio. For superior integration into your home, it also makes use of the latest Wi-Fi 6E and BT 5.3 wireless technologies via its two antennae. The result? A stable and reliable listening experience wherever you listen in your home.

Finally, looking specifically at the 3.5" full-colour touchscreen (a currently unique feature to the WiiM Ultra), a user gets access to App widgets, large album artwork graphics, playback information, presets and customisation options, input selection, and device set-up features - all through a crystal-clear and easy to use touchscreen.

There really is nothing like this on the current market, so get yours today!
